&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-723663&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow ugc&quot;&gt;Unreason&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;: That’s very interesting. Do you know where the dividing line was between East and West TN? I have ancestors from Tennessee. It’s also the first name of a wonderful friend and amazing artist – Tennessee Rice Dixon. She lived in Inwood for a long time. A Cherokee man came and sat next to her on her stoop one day and struck up a conversation. He told her it’s pronounced Ten ah see with the accent on the “ah”.

&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I&#039;d guess it was geographically at least about the eastern 1/3 of the state, maybe more.

Here&#039;s an article about some of that. There was an attempt to try to make E. TN it&#039;s own state:

Here&#039;s a good but hard to find book about the ACW in East Tennessee.  I have a softcover copy of it:

Because Spellman turned out to be a fat unplayable scrub and the Knicks gave up on him because they realized that they needed an actually playable 3rd option at PF-C and were able to find one on a minimum deal.  Why is it any more complicated than that? If they didn&#039;t want to waive him, why didn&#039;t they play him when they were desperate for reserves at the 4-5?

					<description><![CDATA[&lt;blockquote&gt;We also have a Knox County mayor, former pro wrestler Kane/Glenn Jacobs.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Oh, yeah, I know about Glenn/Kane. He&#039;s a hardcore libertarian. Calls himself a Rothbardian libertarian, which basically means every major decision should be governed by market forces of supply and demand. Murray Rothbard, by the way, opposed desegregation all throughout the 1960s. I can definitely see a Venn Diagram of people who support Onion Lady&#039;s revolution and those who think the US Civil War was a conflict born of Yankee aggression against Southern states rights.]]></description>
